The darkness was as black as ink, the moonlight was bright and clear. Led by the kitten, Huo Haocheng moved through the forest with the breeze. The branches rustled wherever he went, and his footsteps pounded on the withered branches and leaves, making a rustling sound that was particularly clear in the quiet night.
"What's that sound? Did you hear it?" The group of people who were just about to rest immediately jumped up after hearing the rustling sound.
At his prompting, the others held their breath and listened attentively for three seconds before immediately dispersing and climbing the nearest tree.
"Well? Can you see what it is?" As soon as they climbed the tree, they looked in all directions, but the night was too dark to see what it was at all.
I didn't see it here.
"I don't have any here either."
"I don't have any here either."
"Strange, what was that just now? It couldn't have been the wind, could it? I couldn't have been mistaken about the sound of a branch breaking under my feet."
It's impossible for them to have misheard, because all of this was orchestrated by Huo Haocheng and Xiao Maomi. It's also impossible for them to see each other. In order to prank them, Huo Haocheng covered his entire body, including his hair, with black clothes. In the words of the drama that Xiao Maomi is watching, this is the standard outfit for causing trouble on a dark and windy night.
After observing them from the shadows for a while and seeing that they were still on guard, he turned and headed to the next group.
Even after he left, the people in the tree showed no sign of coming down. It seemed they planned to stay in the tree until they found out what it was.
Of course, she was also frightened by Huo Haocheng.
Afterwards, Huo Haocheng followed suit and scared several teams. However, when he found Bai Sirui and Ruan Shaoke's team, he didn't need to scare them at all, because Bai Sirui and Ruan Shaolin's commotion was too great and directly attracted the wolf pack. Fortunately, only 6 stray wolves got close to them.
"Alright, what time is it? Why are you two still arguing?" Ruan Shaoke didn't expect that Bai Sirui would be seen by Ruan Shaolin just because he kissed him. Their relationship has been public for so long, but Ruan Shaolin still sees Bai Sirui doing intimate things with him quite often.
"It's all because of him. What time is it now? He's still trying to take advantage of you." Ruan Shaolin didn't want things to be like this, but even if he couldn't control himself, he couldn't stand Bai Sirui taking liberties with his brother. It didn't matter how intimate they were when he couldn't see them, but as long as he saw it, he felt uncomfortable all over and wanted to cause trouble for Bai Sirui. Only in this way could he feel a little better.
"Quiet down, everyone. Let's deal with the immediate problem first."
As the vice-captain, Bai Sirui knew what to do. He quickly pulled two thicker pieces of firewood from the fire on the ground, gave one to each of them, and then took one for himself. The three of them stood in a triangle and used the torches to probe the wolves surrounding them.
There are only three of them now. They don't know if the wolf howl just now will attract other wolves, so they can only finish this quickly and leave.
After a round of probing, Bai Sirui made the first move. He quickly used the fire stick in his hand to attack a large wolf to his side. The wolf was focused on Ruan Shaoke's direction and was caught off guard, taking a blow that knocked it to the ground. Seeing this, the other wolves launched an attack on them.
They pounced on the three of them like lightning. The three of them gripped their sticks tightly, dodging the wolves as they pounced, and then used their fire sticks to strike them hard.
The alpha wolf nimbly dodged Ruan Shaoke's attack, then turned and pounced on him again. In the firelight, its fangs looked particularly ferocious.
The wolf was slightly smaller than Ruan Shaolin's, making it less agile in their fight. Although Ruan Shaolin was younger than the rest of the team, he had been in the military for many years, and Huo Haocheng had also given him rigorous combat training, so he was more than capable of dealing with the wolf.
As the wolf pounced on him, he dodged to the side and simultaneously struck the wolf's back with his stick. He used all his strength in that strike. Huo Haocheng and the kitten, hiding in the branches some distance away, both thought he was hitting the wolf instead of Bai Sirui. Of course, when it came to Bai Sirui, he was only good at verbal sparring; he would never actually resort to physical violence.
When he knocked the wolf to the ground, there was a 'crack' sound. It couldn't get up for a moment and let out a painful howl.
Hearing their companion's cries of pain, the other five wolves lunged at them fiercely.
This time, however, their target was Ruan Shaolin. Seeing them pounce, Ruan Shaolin had no choice but to dodge while attacking them with his stick. After a couple of attacks, one of the wolves bit his stick. But as the wolf bit him, he immediately thrust the dagger in his other hand at the wolf. Sensing the imminent danger, the wolf immediately released its grip and retreated.
Seeing that things were going badly, Bai Sirui and Ruan Shaoke also used their sticks to attack the two wolves that were approaching. However, the wolves were also very clever. After witnessing the strength of the three of them, they launched an attack together. There was no way around it; the three of them broke their formation and went from fighting as a team to fighting like wolves. However, Ruan Shaolin was in a worse situation because he had injured a wolf cub. So, after Bai Sirui and Ruan Shaoke were both entangled by one wolf, the remaining three wolves pounced on him.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Bai Sirui and Ruan Shaoke changed their actions from defense to attack. However, no matter how fast they moved, they could not outrun the three-headed wolf. In the blink of an eye, Ruan Shaolin's arm was scratched by the wolf.
"hiss...."
